Thanks for all the reviews guys, here's another small chapter for you....
"Damn it Daddy! Leave Dusty alone!"
Both men look straight at me, like its so amazing that I swore. Dusty looks at me with pride, but I can still see the sadness and that just fuel my anger. I wish that people would leave him alone, I wish they could see what I see, a sad little boy just wanting somebody to love him. And if Daddy would just leave us alone, I would, I would love Dusty with all that I am, and I would never let him go.
"Daddy, I just want you to leave, leave us alone. If you leave now I'll drop the charges, you won't go to jail for kidnapping me, I'll just say that I was so upset over Alan dying that blamed you, but I was wrong, so just go, and you won't get into trouble. Just leave us alone and never try to speak to us or come into Metro again..."
"Lull-"
"And for Christ sake! STOP calling me Lullaby, I'm 18 years old, not 5 anymore."
Daddy gets this look in his eyes, and he raises the gun a little higher, but instead of pointing it at me like he was before, he swings around and aims the gun at Dusty, who looks out of it and isn't really focusing on what's going on.
"See Dusty?? See what you have done?! Lucy hates me now; she wants he father out of her life, and its all your fault. I'm gonna go to jail because of you, if not for the kidnapping but for threatening Lucy with a gun in a public place!! But if I can't have her than you sure as hell won't!"
And with that, Daddy slowly pulls the trigger on the gun. Dusty still has realized what is happening so he doesn't react, but I sure as hell do, I push Dusty, I push him out of the way just in time, thankfully he doesn't get shot, but I feel this burning in my stomach, its like nothing I have ever felt before, and I start sink to the club floor. Aaron comes out from the back when he hears the shot, and Dusty finally snaps out of his stupor, he catches my head just before I hit the floor, and is cradling me. Daddy couldn't believe what had happened, and he tried to run away, but Aaron catches him and punches him in the face so hard that it knocks him out. Dusty on the other hand is reaching toward my stomach to see how badly I'm hurt. Which is pretty bad if you judge by the amount of blood that is all ready on my shirt...
"Jesus Luce, why in the hell did you do that? Huh? Aaron call an ambulance, tell them to get over here now! Lucy, baby you gotta stay awake, stay with me honey, we'll get you help real soon, you just gotta stay awake for me. Come on, Princess...I love ya Lucy please don't leave"
I can hear Dusty talking to me, begging me to wake up, but I'm so sleepy, I just want to lie here on his lap, feeling safe and warm, and sleep. My eyes are so heavy that I just give the battle up and I sink into unawareness...
What will happen now? Will Lucy be ok? Will Dusty leave? Is Craig finally going to jail this time? Well you'll just hafta wait and see!!!
